Aloha "Good Grief" Friday
"Good grief!" is a phrase often used by Charlie Brown, the
main character from Charles Schulz's comic strip, Peanuts.
Schulz was born on this day in 1922, and today is dedicated to
both him and his enduring comic strip. Peanuts ran
almost fifty years—from October 2, 1950, until February 13,
2000, which was one day after Schulz's death. Schulz created
all aspects of the comic, from the script to the art and
lettering. Today, reprints of Schulz's comic appear in many
U.S. newspapers.
